### 5/5 — Exceptional

*2026-07-22, version 2.9.2*

This app is amazingly useful for viewing KML data, I would absolutely love CarPlay viewing capabilities.

### 4/5 — Very cool!

*2026-06-01, version 2.9.2*

Kudos!

### 5/5 — Супер

*2026-03-27*

Безумно рад тому что нашел это приложение, это то чего мне так давно не хватало на iOS.
Огромная просьба к разработчикам. Я использую накладываемое изображение с .kmz привязкой. И было бы очень удобно регулировать прозрачность изображения прямо с главного экрана карты. Сейчас эта опция слишком глубоко спрятана и пользоваться ей крайне неудобно. Благодарю за внимание!

### 5/5 — O melhor para iPad!

*2026-02-11*

Já o uso por mais de 5 anos. Excelente aplicativo!
Importa os principais formatos, inclusive SHP!
Aliada ao glonass permite trabalhos de campo de ótima precisão.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2026-02-10, version 2.9.0*

### 4/5 — Muy útil

### 3/5 — Sem atualização do mapa

*2026-01-12*

Não atualiza o mapa a anos, é top em tudo mais mapas antigas não consigo pegar áreas atualizadas que seja de um ano atrás, pra quem não consegue off line eu aconselho a abrir o app na rede e ver toda a área que vai trabalhar pq depois sem rede não abre dando zoom.

**Developer response:** The app is just a map editing/viewing tool, it does not provide any map or related content of its own. It uses Apple's native map as the system map layer, which updates when apple or iOS updates. You also can add/connect to custom map layers such as Google Map, OSM, USGS or any online WMS/WMTS map services, check the online user manual for more details. For those custom maps, you can use the download map feature to download online map content for specified region and zoom levels for offline usage.

### 5/5 — Ну, спасибо!

*2025-12-06*

Пользуюсь приложением уже больше года, я геодезист. Все очень удобно. Автор, благодарю!

### 5/5 — 大爱

*2025-10-05, version 2.9.0*
